PoisonOakThe MCU has a hard time handling audio & full animation stuff at the same time :/ it sounds like the EEPROM stuff may be getting messed with - do you reset that each time you reflash it?
What could we do to help getting QMK working better with Arch?

jackhumbertThanks for the EEPROM suggestion! I'll try that and see if that resolves the freezing issue.
The Arch problem is summed up in this issue: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/3316. It's a consequence of Arch's rolling release schedule. If it affects more than a handful of people, it might be nice to detect the GCC version and issue a helpful warning message to anyone using GCC > 7.3 to compile firmware with audio features. On the other hand, if compatibility with newer GCC versions is coming, it probably isn't worth the effort.
Regardless, I appreciate the tip and the effort to improve QMK usability. Thanks for all the great work!

I have read that bad cables can cause problems like this, so I have ordered a new usb-c cable. Any thoughts on what it might be if that doesn't solve the problem? Anyone else have this problem?
It wouldn't bother me that much, but I primarily use this with my Arch laptop, and Arch does not function well with the QMK firmware for Planck, making it difficult to reflash the board on the road.
